Extreme cold, extreme heat, floods, earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, polar day, polar night, hurricanes, acid rain...
Ji Yang endured five years of natural disasters, but ultimately succumbed...
Chapter 019 Chapter 19
Back Home
Ji Yang immediately threw the bloody Tang sword into the space. The blood on it was frozen and had to be thawed in the life space before it could be cleaned.
The environment there can also directly purify the dirty blood.
Then he washed his hands and disinfected them, picked up Xixi and praised her: "Xixi is awesome, she doesn't move when I say she won't move!"
Xixi immediately rubbed against her as if she had no bones, and made a "嘤嘤嘤..." sound from her mouth.
Seeing this, Ji Yang's smile became even gentler.
It doesn't look like fresh blood at all.
Before she started, she told Xixi not to bark or go out. Although this kind of sheepdog can fight wolves, Xixi is not yet grown up, and humans know how to use tools, so she was afraid that Xixi would get hurt.
As for herself, she will be fine.
This group of talents entered the apocalypse from peacetime. They don't know anything and don't have any powerful weapons. It's impossible for them to hurt her, otherwise there would be no need for her to be reborn.
After stroking Xixi, Ji Yang yawned.
Still not enough sleep.
Maybe she slept too little in her previous life. Although Ji Yang worked in a team to complete missions in her previous life, she usually lived alone. A woman living alone is easily spied on wherever she goes. She could never sleep well at night and only got three or four hours of rest a day.
At that time, she complained that she would die suddenly from overwork one day.
The result was death in the earthquake.
That's why in this life, Ji Yang thought of raising a dog, mainly to keep watch so that she could sleep well. But she didn't expect that after enjoying this, she really wanted to sleep for twelve hours.
The memory of her past life flashed through her mind, and Ji Yang quickly calmed herself down, took off her heavy coat and climbed into bed. Since the temperature had dropped to minus fifty or sixty, she had started using an electric blanket.
The temperature in the living room is still quite high, but there is no fireplace in the room, so there is relatively less heat. Therefore, we need two radiators and an electric blanket to sleep comfortably.
After a while, I fell asleep again.
In the dream, after the snowstorm, the world returned to normal.
It was so beautiful that when she woke up and looked at the familiar house, she felt a little dazed.
I looked at the time again. It was ten o'clock.
She was already very hungry. Normally, she had a very regular diet, going to bed at 9:00 pm and getting up at 8:00 am. But today her biological clock was a little messed up, and her stomach protested.
I quickly got up and added some firewood to the fireplace. After a night, there was only a little fire left in the fireplace, so I had to sprinkle a layer of sawdust on it, which was very good for starting a fire.
By the time she had brushed her teeth and washed her face, the two fireplaces were burning again.
As the temperature rose little by little, Ji Yang took off his heavy winter clothes and took out today's breakfast beef noodles, a serving of beef pot stickers, and the dipping sauce provided by the store from the space.
This beef noodle restaurant has a very good reputation. She loved it in her previous life and often went there to eat. The big bowl was filled with beef slices on the top and noodles and vegetables on the bottom, all still piping hot. She first took a sip of the soup, which warmed her from head to toe, then took a mouthful of noodles and a pot sticker. The taste was amazing.
Who else is living a more comfortable life than her? !
Um?
There are quite a lot more.
This is just the beginning.
There were many wealthy and powerful people there, and many of them quickly collected supplies after realizing that something was wrong, which later became the basis for negotiations with the base.
Afterwards, he moved into the base, which was also the best single-family villa, drove a car, and had a bunch of servants serving him at home, which made people drool with envy.
So there was someone who specifically targeted them and took advantage of them.
Unfortunately, Ji Yang at that time was still a poor guy who lived by completing tasks. He had no energy to spy on the games of these big guys. He just listened to some gossip during breaks occasionally, such as which family in the villa area got some good things, how much food they spent, etc.
——
Enjoying the food here.
Elsewhere, there was chaos.
The couple in 702 finally got up, wondering what was going on outside this morning. They were about to open the door to ask someone, but when they opened the door, they saw their father/father-in-law lying on the ground, his face was blue and purple, and there was even a layer of frost.
Looking closely, there was blood on the abdomen and hands!
"Dad!" A wailing sound rang out in the corridor.
The others who were involved in or heard about this incident all shuddered, and no one dared to say anything.
I thought Lao Zhu's son and daughter-in-law would do something, but after they cried and wailed, they silently dragged their father into the house, and everything was fine.
Some people complained that the son had no conscience, while others thought they did the right thing.
If it were them, they wouldn't dare to confront the girl on the 15th floor.
If someone has a knife, he will really stab you!
They still want to live.
I thought the matter was over. Because of this incident, no one in the entire building went out that day. But that afternoon, another piece of news came.
Tang Fang’s husband and brother were found!
Under the corridor window!
After last night, they were buried in the snow, but not too deep. Tang Fang was rescued and cried and begged for people to go and check on her. Everyone had robbed her family of food, so they still felt a little guilty. In addition, her sister-in-law was also crying and begging, so the men went down reluctantly.
Once I went down there, I discovered it.
The bigger discovery is that the cause of death of these two people was a bullet in the eyebrow!
I've heard for a long time that there's a gunman in their neighborhood who killed people who came to rob the neighborhood, and now I see that he happened to be in their building? !
"Isn't it the fifteenth floor?" someone asked tremblingly. He was also one of the participants before, and was encouraged by Tang Fang to go into Ji Yang's house to take a look and take the opportunity to get some food.
After all, the girl eats delicious food every day, so what’s wrong with giving them some?
Don't let the big guys target you like this.
Qiao Huijun kept a sullen face and said nothing.
He didn't have the confidence to nod or shake his head.
However, one man frowned and said disdainfully, "How is that possible?! Didn't you hear what happened on the 15th floor? Her door was specially modified. These two people failed to pry it open. I guess they are trying to pry open other doors, such as the upper floors, the 16th and 17th floors. I remember there was an elderly person living alone on the 17th floor? I heard that he was a soldier. Maybe he has a gun!"
Qiao Huijun's brows relaxed. He was more willing to believe that a man had a gun than a girl had a gun: "Indeed, this possibility is greater."
The other men also agreed, and some looked excited: "No wonder! The old man on the 17th floor probably took action because he didn't like these two, just like the guy who came to our community to collect protection fees last time. He is worthy of being a soldier!"
"So cool! If I had known earlier, I would have established a good relationship with this old man. In this situation, it would be very nice to just hug his thighs."
"I was wondering how a woman could have a gun? How did she get it back to China? If she really had this relationship, why would she live here? She went straight to Pingchaoyuan... Come to think of it, this woman is really attractive! Don't let me find a chance, otherwise..."
Pingchaoyuan is where the dignitaries of Changnan City live. It may look ordinary, but in fact everyone has to bow and nod when they see it.
Tang Fang, who was crying while holding her husband's body, stopped crying when she heard this, touched her broken leg, and continued crying.
She was sure that it was Ji Yang who did it!
No wonder she was so ruthless, she must have been a gangster and had a gun.
If it were before, Tang Fang would definitely not accept it, but now her leg bones were broken by Ji Yang. Thinking of that scene, she was extremely scared, not to mention knowing that she still had a gun.
But she didn't say it.
This group of people robbed her family of supplies, which was half her life. She couldn't kill them, so naturally she hoped that they would seek death themselves!
Go to hell!
It would be best if Ji Yang and I both suffered heavy losses and died together!
——
These people talk big but they are more cowardly than anyone else.
Everyone thought that the old man living alone on the 17th floor had a gun, and they wanted to get him, but no one dared to really go for it, unless they were at their wit's end. The other party had killed nearly 20 people so far, so they were still mostly afraid of it.
Some people also thought that the old man was probably an upright person, so they were a little scared for a while because they had robbed Room 602. They were afraid that the old man would come down to cause trouble for them, and they didn’t dare to go upstairs to find him.
After holding it in for two days, I finally breathed a sigh of relief when everything returned to normal.
But because of this, the building unexpectedly entered a period of peace.
There were often sounds of robbery coming from other buildings, each time getting worse and worse, but Building Nine was quite honest, with a group of people going out every day to look for supplies.
However, as resources were depleted, fewer and fewer supplies were found.
The atmosphere in the building became tense again, with occasional disturbances at night. At first everyone turned a blind eye, until the disturbances became so intense that it was impossible to form a team to look for supplies during the day.
It's not just the noise inside the building, it's the noise outside as well.
While they were out chopping wood and collecting supplies in broad daylight, people from other buildings formed teams and ran over to grab the supplies. They would run away if they couldn't grab the supplies, and give up if they couldn't. For a while, this group of people didn't dare to go out.
I was afraid that if I wasn’t careful, I would come home empty-handed.
But if we don’t go out, we won’t have any supplies.
For a while, the air pressure in the building was extremely low, and many people ran to Qiao Huijun's home on the eighth floor to seek help. The old and the young cried one after another, and Qiao Huijun was overwhelmed, but this dependence on him also gave him some ideas.
After sending away the person who came to ask for help, Qiao Huijun went straight to the home of Liang Zhen, the deputy building manager on the 12th floor. After exchanging a few pleasantries, he began to cryptically explain his plans:
"We can't go on like this. The people in the building are in disarray and can't go out together. We have to unite them. So I suggest that we form an extreme cold survival alliance. Everyone who joins the alliance must hand in a certain amount of food as collateral and a joining fee. Then we divide into teams to search for supplies. We put some of the supplies in the alliance and distribute some as rations. Lao Liang, we two happen to be the building leaders, so it's perfect for us to be the leaders. If someone bullies us, we don't have to be afraid with so many of us!"
Liang Zhen frowned when he heard this.
The idea is good, but some of the practices make him uncomfortable. He is an upright and gentle person, but not stupid. In this situation, who would be willing to give away their life-saving food?
And it’s said to be a franchise fee, can I get it back if I quit later?
I'm afraid the possibility is very small.
Without food and with your life in the hands of others, you won’t dare to resist whatever you are asked to do next.
What’s the difference between them and those people who were charged protection fees they met before?
Liang Zhen figured it out and smiled bitterly: "Brother Qiao, I'm afraid it won't work. I don't have any food stored at home, otherwise I wouldn't risk going out these days, so I won't participate."
Qiao Huijun's eyes darkened, and he persuaded: "Lao Liang, we are good brothers, we won't cheat you. If you join now, you will be a veteran and even the deputy leader in the future!"
Liang Zhen still refused.
Persuasion failed, so Qiao Huijun could only go out with a rage. He looked up and down, gritted his teeth, and went straight upstairs.
Nowadays, if we can win over the old man on the 17th floor and give him a gun, we can achieve twice the result with half the effort!
Halfway through the journey, Qiao Huijun went back home to get a can of fruit before going up.
The top floor seemed even colder. Snowflakes from the rooftop occasionally drifted in through the open door, and there was a thin layer of snow in the corridor.
There were no footprints in the snow.
Qiao Huijun's heart skipped a beat and he knocked on the door quickly. He had registered before and saw the old man go down to collect food with his own eyes, so nothing should happen...
After knocking for a long time, no one answered.
Qiao Huijun's heart was burning with anger. If the old man died, the gun in his hand... He took a deep breath and kicked the door handle with all his strength.
The door seemed to be a little damaged to begin with, and was made brittle by the extreme cold, so it was unexpectedly knocked open by him.
He was overjoyed and felt that God had blessed him. He ran inside quickly and saw the old man lying in the quilt. He had already frozen to death. The house was cold and deserted, as if no one had been there for a long time.
Then he began to rummage through the drawers.
Found about ten pounds of food and some seasonings.
After searching for a long time, I found nothing.
He searched everything, including the old man's body.
Qiao Huijun sat down on the sofa dejectedly and began to doubt his life. Could the person with the gun really be the girl on the 15th floor?
It's incredible!
Wait, if that's the case, then his plan seems feasible and can be modified.
Qiao Huijun's eyes sparkled and he looked a little greedy.
Perhaps it was a stereotype. Although he was afraid of the Tang sword and gun in Ji Yang's hand, he was not afraid to the same extent as he was of the old man before.
Facing an elderly man who had served in the army, he dared not even spy on him unless the other person was dead.
But when faced with a girl in her twenties who possessed such an attractive weapon, he couldn't help but salivate.
——
End of August.
The Arctic Survival Alliance was established.
It's not just Building 9. Qiao Huijun is still somewhat useful. He directly united the four buildings in the property group together. Everyone has been in the same group for several years and is more or less familiar with each other.
After all the trouble, two building managers and one deputy building manager stopped participating, but the others all joined in and lobbied the people below, using both knocking, beating and coaxing, and a survival alliance of more than fifty people was formed.
The first thing they did after they were established was to collect protection fees.
Other people in the building who did not participate in the movement had to pay protection fees, not much, just three kilograms of food per family, to protect them from being bullied by people from other buildings or outsiders.
At first, no one was willing to do it and there was a lot of fuss.
Until a few days later, a group of people came to steal. The survival alliance had a special night watchman who immediately called for help after discovering the situation. Soon someone came out and caught the thieves red-handed.
They were outnumbered and there were only three thieves. They were caught and severely beaten, taken to their homes and emptied out, and then the three of them were paraded through the community as a warning to others.
Two of them died during the parade, leaving one barely alive.
Noticing the death, the members of the survival alliance became afraid and naturally let the last person go. However, after this incident, collecting protection fees became much smoother.
Collect all the way up.
Just reached the fifteenth floor.
Qiao Huijun glanced at 1502, suppressed the excitement in his heart, and decided that it was not the right time yet, so he took people to knock on the door of 1501.
The Li family had heard it a long time ago. They gave a bitter smile, and Dad Li held down his daughter and wife, telling them not to go out, and went to open the door himself.
"You can't avoid what's coming. If you really can't do it, just admit your defeat. Spend money to avoid disaster. Spend money to avoid disaster!"
It is impossible to resist so many people by force. In order to prevent my family from suffering, I have to suffer some losses.
Li Yi smiled bitterly and did not refute.
People still have to know the times.
Their family has concerns and weaknesses, and there is no one powerful enough to stand in their way, so they should just admit defeat and they will always be able to get through it.
Father Li opened the door and saw the crowd of people outside. He smiled and said, "Hey, Building Manager Qiao is here."
Qiao Huijun also smiled enthusiastically: "Old Li, let's not beat around the bush about our relationship. You said you don't want to join the Tongmenghui, and I agree with you, but you have to pay the protection fee, right? Otherwise, wouldn't it be in vain for us brothers to protect our building day and night?"
Father Li nodded repeatedly: "Yes, yes, we are ready for this. Do you think this is okay?"
As he said this, he took out the three kilograms of rice in his hand.
They have the most of this stuff at home, which can last for at least half a year. They have very little other stuff.
Qiao Huijun was satisfied. Seeing his positive attitude, he took the things without weighing them. He turned around and called a group of brothers to go to the 16th floor.
Since then, the Tongmenghui has been in full swing and has actually accomplished some real results. With them as the backbone, a group of strong people searching for supplies together will definitely be more successful.
It’s just that the supplies we receive are divided equally, so I don’t know how many people are willing to search carefully.
But it is true that people from other buildings did not come to steal again.
Whenever there is any minor friction in the building, people will clamor to find Qiao Huijun and it will be resolved quickly.
But Ji Yang saw all this.
During this period, there was also good news. The government set up exchange points and called on the public to collect various supplies and exchange them for points. The points can be used as money to exchange for various survival supplies.
When the news came, the survivors who were worried about the dwindling food became excited and ran out to find supplies.
The Li family also ran out.
Now that the Tongmenghui is in the building, people feel much more at ease. Therefore, the three members of the family went out and only left the two elderly people at home. They all wanted to find more things to exchange for food and store them at home to feel at ease.
——
When Ji Yang heard the news, he was stunned for a long time.
In her previous life, she had never heard of any exchange point until she followed the rescue officials to the base, but after the heavy rain and floods, the exchange point appeared.
But at that time, all the good things were washed away and very little could be found, and the government entered a long period of material shortage.
As a result, the base that she had built with all her efforts was mostly destroyed by an earthquake when she died.
It’s a pity to think about it.
These changes, which are different from previous lives, must have been caused by the knowledge that there would be many more natural disasters in the future, otherwise the authorities would not allow people to use those personal resources at will.
It seems that her emails are really useful!
Ji Yang was a little excited, but after the excitement, he also thought that because of the emergence of official exchange points, the weather now seemed to be much more stable, and more and more people were willing to come out.
There is no shortage of people finding all sorts of good stuff.
Therefore, the profession of profiteer has re-emerged and has become another major force besides various capital forces. Although they don't look very good, they can get you anything you want.
As long as you can afford the price.
Ji Yang immediately put on his clothes, packed up and prepared to go out.
There has been no activity in her space for a long time. In the future, she can go to the exchange office regularly to see if there will be people setting up stalls to trade. She has food and food, so she is not afraid of not being able to exchange for good quality jade.
Seeing that her owner was about to go out, Xixi immediately started spinning around happily.
As a dog, it still likes to play outdoors. Although it is cold, it is comfortable.
After all, the family restricts its performance.
Ji Yang smiled and comforted: "Okay, okay, I'll take you there."
"Woof woof woof!" Xixi was even happier.
Ji Yang still wrapped himself tightly, put a rope on Xixi, put on a big mountaineering bag, took out a ski board, and went downstairs briskly with the dog. Xixi was still a little uncomfortable with the feeling of wearing a rope, and frequently tried to kick the rope off, but was stopped by Ji Yang every time, and gradually got used to it.
On the way down the stairs, I met many people from Building 9. Everyone in Building 9 knew Ji Yang. They knew that this girl had no shortage of supplies and even had a dog. I didn't expect her to come out.
Someone whispered, "It seems that this girl can't bear it anymore and has to come out to look for supplies."
Someone immediately sneered: "Who would have so much spare supplies? Look how fat this dog is. He must have plenty of supplies. He just wants to stock up."
"That's right. Look at us. We are all skinny from hunger. My wife weighed 150 kilograms before the disaster, but now she is almost back to the weight she was before giving birth."
"Comparing yourself to others is really frustrating!"
Ji Yang accidentally heard some of the murmuring behind her, but since the other party didn't do anything to her, she ignored it.
After walking for a while, we reached a flat road, took out our skis, and tried to ski on the snow.
The snow was compacted by people going out, but snowflakes kept falling down. It was hard inside and a bit soft outside, and the skis felt very comfortable on it.
Xixi ran beside her.
Later, maybe I felt that she was too slow, so I sped up and ran ahead of her.
Ji Yang held the rope with his hand and felt a pulling force. He subconsciously adjusted his center of gravity and took off at high speed.
Ji Yang: ...
Good job!
Is it possible to play like this?
Now she is not sleepy anymore.
"Xixi is awesome! Turn, turn!" Ji Yang praised happily. When they reached the turning place, he pulled the rope in advance, and Xixi changed direction very humanly.
After being praised, it kicked its four legs very fast!
The official exchange office is in a shopping mall ten kilometers away, which is close to the city center and the place with the heaviest traffic. Ji Yang was still worried about how to secretly take out the snowmobile with so many people around, but now he doesn't have to do that.
At Xixi's speed, it only took about twenty minutes to reach ten kilometers.
Consume a few pieces of meat.
After secretly feeding Xixi, Ji Yang put away his skis and led it towards the shopping mall, which was already crowded with people. Many people died due to the extreme cold, but the number of survivors was still very impressive.
Everyone hurried in and out, carrying large and small bags when leaving, and only having a small package left when coming out, hiding it in their arms. They waited for their friends to gather, and then rushed home.
Everyone was like this, completely losing the leisurely and calmness they had before the end of the world.
If you are not careful, the supplies may be exposed and everything may be lost.
In serious cases, even life is lost.
Ji Yang appeared with a half-grown dog that looked strong and fat. He looked out of place with the people around him, so naturally he attracted a lot of attention.
However, no one dared to do anything under the official supervision.
——
Ji Yang glanced around and saw a row of stalls at the entrance of the mall. This was her target for today. She walked over quickly. These stalls were simply covered with a bed sheet with a few things placed on it.
There is everything here, except food and survival equipment, which are in short supply in the current environment.
After scanning one by one, I found that there were indeed stalls selling jade.
Ji Yang walked over casually, picked up a nice jade bracelet and took a look at it.
Xixi immediately squatted aside, constantly scanning the surroundings with a vigilant look.
The stall owner, who had huddled up in a ball, immediately opened his eyes slightly and said in a muffled voice, "Girl, you have good eyesight. My wife spent more than 200,000 yuan to buy this thing! Now you can take it away with just ten kilograms of food!"
A stall owner nearby twitched his eyes and looked at the man speechlessly.
It’s so expensive, how can it be sold?!
Ji Yang was so angry that he laughed. Was he asking for an exorbitant price just because she was a young girl?
She's not stupid.
It has been more than half a year since the natural disaster, and the authorities have been busy collecting materials and building bases, and have not been able to take care of so many things. They have just barely managed to keep people from starving to death. However, there are endless robbers, thieves, and protection rackets, so it is good enough if we can keep half of the food.
At this point, it goes without saying how much ten kilograms of grain can be exchanged for.
The prices of gold, silver and jade all plummeted, and no one wanted even a pound of grain, except for those big bosses who had reserved a lot of supplies in advance. But these big bosses did not think highly of these jades.
Ji Yang had suffered in her previous life, so even though she had enough supplies in this life, she didn't plan to be a fat sheep. She didn't say anything immediately, but looked at the stall again.
There were so many jade bracelets, which were definitely not bought by his family before the natural disaster. Ji Yang touched them one by one and found a few that made the ring react more significantly, exactly nine of them.
The stall owner's eyes widened. He took his hands out of his sleeves with full expectation and looked at her eagerly.
Ji Yang said directly: "So many, ten kilograms of potatoes, do you want them?"
Stall owner: ...
His smile disappeared immediately, and he muttered in disappointment: "This is millions of dollars before it was put together!"
Ji Yang put it down directly: "Forget it if it doesn't work."
The stall owner immediately changed his tone: "Okay, okay, okay! Ten kilograms is ten kilograms!!!"
Ji Yang put away the jade bracelet and took out potatoes one by one from her backpack with her other hand. The stall owner hurried to borrow a scale from someone. Relying on the touch she had honed in her previous life, she took out exactly ten pounds of potatoes, a little more. However, they were not easy to cut, so she pretended not to see the stall owner secretly weighing the little bit on the scale.
The transaction was completed, and when Ji Yang was packing his backpack, he threw all the jade stones into the space.
Still no use.
Ji Yang did not give up and continued to move to the next jade stall.
Her backpack could hold about 50 kilograms of potatoes, so she purchased according to the amount of 50 kilograms. There were quite a lot of people selling jade and looking at jade, but at least Ji Yang hadn't found anyone who was willing to buy it during her shopping trip.
Unfortunately, few of the items currently on sale are of a quality that she would approve of.
After spending more than 20 kilograms of potatoes, Ji Yang finally met a dealer. Seeing that she liked them, the dealer immediately said tentatively, "Sister, I still have a lot. How much can you eat?"
Ji Yang smiled: "I want good quality ones. I will try my best to eat as many as you have."
The man seemed to be sizing her up, then glanced at the backpack, and stretched out his hand: "Let's go by the market price. At least 500 kilograms of food will be needed."
Ji Yang was delighted, but his expression remained calm: "Can the frozen fruit be cheaper?"
The other party's eyes lit up, and his attitude suddenly became several times more enthusiastic. He handed over a stool and said, "Sit down, sister. Let's talk about what fruits you have."
"Durian, strawberries, blueberries, bananas..." Ji Yang roughly counted them and reminded the other party in his increasingly expectant eyes: "The quantity is not too much, but it can be collected into 200 kilograms."
The man hesitated: "This is too much, how about 300 kilograms?"
Ji Yang was embarrassed: "Fruits are hard to get right now. Three hundred kilograms is not enough. Two hundred kilograms at most."
After some negotiation, the deal was finally settled at 200 kilograms of fruit and 50 kilograms of cabbage.
Although it was nearly 60% less than expected, if the fruit was taken to the rich area, it could definitely be exchanged for more things than 500 kilograms of grain. Of course, not everyone has this opportunity, so most people prefer food that can fill their stomachs.
It just so happens that his boss has a connection.
Both parties were very straightforward and the deal was quickly finalized, and the transaction location was still here.
The other party said cheerfully: "My stall is here. If you have any good stuff in the future, please bring it here. I will continue to collect jade and stones. I think you will want some later, right?"
Ji Yang smiled and nodded: "Yes."
Rich people have many quirks, and she is not worried about being noticed as abnormal.
As expected, the man didn't care at all. After confirming that the transaction was possible, he immediately said, "Sister, my name is Luo Laosan. If you come and I'm not here, you can ask anyone here and you will find me. But don't leave alone with anyone. There are a lot of bad guys here."
He doesn't want to wait and wait for the sponsor to come!
Ji Yang nodded to thank him for his kindness, then stood up and continued to look at other stalls. The last few stalls did not have the quality jade she wanted. She thought to herself what a pity it was and was about to turn around and leave when Xixi beside her suddenly growled.
She immediately looked around cautiously, and saw a middle-aged man approaching with an apologetic smile. Noticing that she and the dog were on guard, he stopped and said, "Don't get me wrong, I mean no harm, I just came to ask. I have jade bracelets here too, they were all extremely expensive before, some cost more than a million, do you want any, girl? I guarantee there will be enough!"
As he spoke, he showed a jade pendant in his hand. It had excellent color and was crystal clear. It was obviously an expensive item.
Ji Yang looked at him quietly.
The man chuckled and handed over the jade pendant directly: "Yes, take a look, but the things are valuable, I can't take them all. Sister, if you want, I will take you to have a look? As long as you can afford the price, those tens of millions of things before the snow disaster will be taken away!"
Ji Yang was not polite and took the jade pendant: "Okay."
The man immediately let go and pointed the way attentively: "This way, this way--"
Ji Yang glanced at him and followed him.
The man smiled enthusiastically, glanced at the half-grown dog that had calmed down again, and said enviously, "Such a big dog must eat a lot every day, right?"
"It's okay, dogs eat dog food." Ji Yang said casually, watching him lead him into an intersection, a dark light flashed in his eyes.
At the entrance of the shopping mall, Luo Laosan had just happily written down today's big deal and was calculating his commission. Suddenly, when he looked up, he saw his client following a man into an alley. He was stunned.
Hey hey hey!
Didn't he say not to leave with strangers?!
There are official people guarding this place. If you go too far away, everything will be lost!
Thinking of his commission, Luo Laosan gritted his teeth, called someone to help him look after the stall, and crawled to get the person.
"Boss, boss! Someone is actually doing something bad in your territory! Help!"
——
After walking for a few minutes, Ji Yang seemed to see something wrong and stamped his feet: "Why is it taking so long? Are you taking me somewhere?"
Realizing that his master was in a bad mood, Xixi immediately bared his teeth and looked ferocious.
The man's eyes widened immediately, his face full of an expression of being wronged: "How could it be?! I just want to sell a piece of jade. If you don't believe me, look, I have more on me. I'll put this as collateral for you. Don't worry, nothing will happen. I, Xu Datou, have an official account!"
Ji Yang hesitated until the other party stuffed a jade pendant into her hand.
Feeling the slight warmth on her finger ring, she knew that this was also a good item. It wasn't as good as the jade pendant just now, but it was still okay. She reluctantly said, "Okay."
The man chuckled, nodded and continued to coax her forward, this time at a much faster speed.
Ji Yang didn't make a fuss. Although he was dissatisfied, he just followed and walked quickly.
Not until they were out of the official control area did the man immediately take two steps back and clapped his hands. Five greasy-haired men with disgusting smiles on their faces appeared from the surrounding openings and came towards Ji Yang.
Xixi immediately got angry, lowered her upper body slightly, bared her teeth and growled to warn them not to come over.
"Hey, sister, this dog is really fat." A man sipped his saliva and looked straight at Xixi: "I like eating dog meat the most. I haven't eaten it for a long time. Today I can finally taste it."
Ji Yang felt disgusted and looked away.
The others followed suit and approached step by step.
But out of fear of Xixi, no one dared to take the first step.
Xu Datou retreated to a safe area and urged: "Hurry up, capture the man and ask for the location of the supplies! Don't dawdle, it will be bad if someone finds out. This man just made a deal with Luo Laosan."
The faces of several people changed slightly, and they stopped hesitating and rushed towards the man and the dog, waving the sticks and machetes in their hands. The focus was on the dog, and they didn't care about a little girl.
Ji Yang quickly squatted down and untied Xixi's rope, and gave an order: "Xixi, come on!"
Xixi roared, selected one person, and rushed his claws straight to the opponent's face, hitting him with one strike. The moment the scream sounded, the stick in his hand also swung over, but Xixi quickly turned around to avoid it and went to the next person.
There are only six people here in total. The alley is spacious and there is snow. People are not as flexible as animals in the snow, so it is just right for Xixi to exercise.
In addition to training herself every day, Ji Yang also occasionally trains Xixi. Of course, she is not a professional coach, so she teaches it to catch and bite people according to the teaching methods on the Internet.
Fortunately, Xixi is a smart little dog with a strong sense of crisis, so he handled the situation well.
Seeing it dodging easily in the siege of three people and looking for opportunities to launch sneak attacks, Ji Yang was very satisfied with the results of the training. Just as she was about to take action, she caught a glimpse of another group of people at the alley. She decisively replaced the pistol she was about to take out with a dagger.
The other three were also stunned by the dog's fighting power, but they soon thought that Ji Yang might be the point of attack, and immediately turned their guns towards Ji Yang.
As long as the owner is at hand, the dog might beg for mercy.
Just as they were about to attack, Ji Yang rushed towards them with a dagger in his hand. They were completely unprepared and the man in front only felt a chill on his neck.
He had clearly swung the machete, but his wrist was blocked by a force and was stuck there. Then he felt the heat from his body quickly draining away and he fell to the ground without any support.
"Brother!" one of them roared, "I'm going to fight you!"
Ji Yang pursed his lips and said nothing, then went straight forward to meet his attack, easily blocking it. With a shout of "Fuck!" in the dark, he found an opportunity and quickly and viciously pointed out the opponent's fatal weakness.
"Ah!" The heart-wrenching scream startled the dog.
But soon, Ji Yang approached with a dagger in his hand, and the tip of the knife scratched his throat, making him unable to scream.
When the third person saw this scene, he immediately shouted: "Run——"
Before he could finish a word, a dagger flew straight towards him and hit him in the neck.
At this time, Xixi suddenly rushed over and bit off a piece of the man's flesh. This was much more painful than being scratched by claws. Combined with the other wounds on his face, the man fell to the ground covering his face, losing his ability to fight.
There are two left.
But the two also realized that they were not easy to deal with, so they turned around and ran away. Ji Yang didn't want to leave any trouble behind, so he chased after them immediately, and another dagger appeared in his hand, which he threw directly when he got close to them!
A very accurate hit on the back of the neck.
But this also delayed her, causing the last person to distance himself from her and escape through an alley.
But as soon as he entered, the man flew back and fell to the ground the next second.
Ji Yang glanced at the people coming out of the alley and smiled politely: "Thank you."
Then he silently took out the third dagger and quickly stabbed it into the opponent's chest. Then he pulled it out, wiped the dagger with snow, and went to collect the other daggers. By the way, he searched the bodies of these people to see if there was any jade or other things that he had missed.
I was lucky enough to find two rings and a jade pendant, both of which were in good condition. I threw them all into the space.
At the alley entrance, Luo Laosan closed his jaw in shock and said, "How many daggers did she bring?!"
Others: …
Good question!
But they wanted to ask, is it normal for this girl to greet them with such a gentle smile after killing someone and have such a good attitude? !
Ji Yang rubbed Xixi's face with praise. When he saw the blood on the dog's paws and face, he frowned and grabbed some clean snow to wash the dog's face.
This method is very convenient when you don't have various cleaning supplies. Just rub the snowflakes on the dog a few times and a lot of dirt can be removed.
After wiping, I let Xixi shake its fur to shake off a lot of snowflakes, and it became a clean and beautiful dog again.
Ji Yang stood up with satisfaction, and was a little surprised to see that they had not left yet.
At this time, the leading man suddenly walked towards him, followed by Luo Laosan, and the others lagged behind by two steps. Two of them were still looking at the corpse, and after looking at it, their eyes turned towards Ji Yang with particularly awe.
He was a werewolf, and he killed six people without batting an eyelid.
——
Luo Laosan smiled warmly with a bit of respect: "Miss Ji, this is my boss Xie Muzhi. I saw you leaving with that jerk just now, so I called the boss over for fear that you would suffer. Of course, Miss Ji is very brave, and I was overthinking."
Ji Yang quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "Thank you anyway."
Kindness is a luxury in the last days. When you accept the kindness of others, you should still treat it politely regardless of whether you use it or not.
Xie Muzhi also greeted her: "Miss Ji."
Ji Yang glanced at him, his eyes sparkling: "Hello, Mr. Xie."
Xie Muzhi looked at her and said, "Miss Ji is quite skilled. I just happen to be in need of someone who can fight. I will provide you with preferential treatment and can guarantee the safety of your family members. I wonder if Miss Ji is interested?"
"No." Ji Yang refused: "I am naturally lazy and disobedient. I don't want to be managed by a boss, and I don't have any family members who need protection."
Luo Laosan was stunned and heartbroken. He looked at her and felt regretful that she was wasting food.
Ji Yang smiled.
The next second Xie Muzhi spoke up: "Well, it's a pity that I can't work with Miss Ji, but I wonder where Miss Ji learned this skill? It seems a little familiar?"
Ji Yang couldn't laugh anymore.
The man was wearing light-colored clothes, which were a bit thick due to the extreme cold, so his figure could not be seen. But what could be seen at a glance was that he was tall, a head taller than Luo Lao San next to him.
The hat and scarf covered most of his face, but when the goggles were taken off, his exposed eyebrows and eyes were handsome and elegant. If nothing unexpected happened, he must be a handsome guy.
And Ji Yang was sure that this man was a handsome guy.
Because she had met him in her previous life.
Of course, at that time she didn't know that Xie Muchi was the head of the profiteers in Changnan City. She was just in urgent need of a coach. When she was on a mission, she encountered a foreign mercenary gang and almost died there. When she returned to the base, she took out a large sum of points and found the profiteer to find a master.
The other party looked for her everywhere, but those masters still couldn't beat her. When she wanted to ask the dealer to return the points, Xie Muchi appeared.
This man was handsome, and Ji Yang thought he was just a show-off at first. However, she was defeated in a formal fight. She was already very strong, but her skills were all acquired through her stray learning from masters. She was no match for him, and he would find an opportunity to beat her up in just a few moves.
She grimaced in pain, but was still excited, thinking that the points were not wasted.
In this way, Ji Yang studied with the other person for a month. This person taught her everything he knew and had time all day long. Whenever she asked, he could answer her immediately. He would also help her change her moves according to her force habits so that she could kill with one strike better.
She benefited a lot from it, but of course the price was extremely expensive, and poor Ji Yang couldn't afford to renew the contract, so she only studied for a month at most.
Those moves have now been integrated into her body, and have been changed to varying degrees due to her personal habits and angles of force.
Unexpectedly, this person still noticed something strange.
